As long as there are people like your good self Kenny who are willing to take the time to think about what is happening, and refuse to jerk the knee at every imagined slight, then I'm sure the US will be alright.It's a shame that so many of your far right nutters manage to grab much of the headlines though. It gives us a pretty skewed view, although your governments foreign policies don't help much either, but like most nations the governments don't really represent the people.
